Restoring Incremental Backup using Netbackup

Question

Hi,
Need your help. We have a backup of our Oracle 10g Database(one full backup and one incremental backup). The full backup (level0) is done by Netbackup and the incremental backup is done by local rman.
Now we want to restore the database. I have modified the script of Netbackup to restore the controlfile of incremental backup and allocate 2 channels for tape and disk. Our incremental backup resides in disk. Is the script we used below correct?
RUN {
ALLOCATE CHANNEL ch00 TYPE DISK;
send 'NB_ORA_CLIENT=prod01, NB_ORA_SERV=NAS';
RESTORE CONTROLFILE FROM '/rman/backup/incremental/ctl_PROD_c-86955024-20101221-
03';
ALTER DATABASE MOUNT;
RELEASE CHANNEL ch00;
RUN {
ALLOCATE CHANNEL ch00 TYPE 'SBT_TAPE';
ALLOCATE CHANNEL ch01 TYPE DISK;
send 'NB_ORA_CLIENT=prod01, NB_ORA_SERV=NAS';
#SET UNTIL SEQUENCE 138730 thread 1;
RESTORE DATABASE;
RECOVER DATABASE;
RELEASE CHANNEL ch00;
RELEASE CHANNEL ch01;
thanks,
Benjo

Hi benjo,
You cannot allocate two types of channels at the same time so you should try a three step approach.
(Every time create a new connection to the target.)
Restore controlfile
No need for:
send 'NB_ORA_CLIENT=prod01, NB_ORA_SERV=NAS';exit
Restore database from tape.
remove from your second run block
ALLOCATE CHANNEL ch01 TYPE DISK;
RECOVER DATABASE;
RELEASE CHANNEL ch01;exit
Than create a recover command with disk channels
basicly remove the tape channel and restore commands from your second run block and add
alter database open resetlogs;Regards,
